Meiji Restoration Secretary-General Fujita next House of Representatives election “Aiming to break the majority between Liberal Democratic Party and Komeito”

Japan Restoration Party Secretary-General Fujita said it was necessary to create a political system with a sense of tension in light of the problems surrounding the LDP's faction's political funding party, and he called for the LDP and Komeito parties to fall short of the majority in the next House of Representatives election. He expressed his intention to pursue this goal.

Secretary-General Fujita of the Nippon Ishin no Kai stated on the BS TV Tokyo program ``NIKKEI Sunday Salon'' broadcast on the 18th, regarding the issue of political funds held by factions of the Liberal Democratic Party, ``A specific faction has been working for a long time with a deliberate intention.'' The problem was that they were working hard to create slush funds in an organized manner."

Regarding the Diet's Political Ethics Review Committee, which the opposition parties are requesting, ``Chairmen, chairs, and general secretaries of factions have the authority to run their organizations and cannot be exempted from responsibility. "Members who exceed the amount should be held accountable," he said, reiterating his understanding that executives from the Abe and Nikai factions should attend.

Mr. Fujita also said, ``The reason why the Liberal Democratic Party is moving slowly towards political reform is because it lacks a sense of tension.In addition to its previous goal of becoming the largest opposition party in the next House of Representatives election, "We must create a political system with a sense of tension."
